Summer Hair Stylin

As crazy as it sounds for someone who spends to much time picking out clothes, I've always been one of those girls who is super low-maintenance with her hair. I'd rather air-dry than blow dry and become clueless when it comes to curling irons, BUT I've been making attempts to change that.

I've been super inspired by scouring tumblr and pintrest for pretty hairstyles and tutorials at the beauty department. These are a few of the ones I'm dying to try out. Seems to be that messy waves, fishtail braids, and big, teased hair are trending for summer!

These are some of the styles i'm loving via tumblr & Lauren Conrad's awesome beauty tutorial site, the beauty department:

My first step to Hairstyling 101 is a great blowdryer, Misikko sent me one of their best professional hair dryers, the HanaAir Premiere Hair Dryer and I couldn't believe what a huge difference it made in my hair! It dried it in a few minutes flat and frizz-less, which is a miracle for my super thick and wavy hair. I also applied Shine Shield Heat Protectant to keep my hair from gettting too dry. They also sell chi straighteners and titanium flat irons at their online store.

I'm SO excited to have some fun with my hair this summer and experiment with new hairstyles. Have you been wanting to try anything new with yours?

I love the beauty department, they have some great tutorials on there, I've not tried any of them out yet but they make them look pretty easy. At the minute I'm doing mine in a fishtail plait more often than not and I'm still trying to perfect the wave :)

I love all the styles here, especially Blake Lively's! I'm just like you because I don't usually do much with my hair except straighten it but this summer I'm really loving the messy waves look since it goes with my natural texture.

You're just like me! I can spend hours picking out outfits (hmm, maybe not every day... but often enough) but am super low maintenance when it comes to hair. Air drying is my method of choice! I do think that helps making my hair look a little more beachy, since it has a tendency to be very flat and straight otherwise. I really wish I knew how to braid a fishtail in my own hair - love that look. :)

I'm just like you - I hate doing my hair!! Usually I don't bother b/c doing hair is super time consuming and hard when one has super slippery locks. Damn I so want beach waves and perfectly undone buns!! They make it look so easy, when really it's torture.
